Black and White Scavenger Hunt #1
 
Black and White Scavenger Hunt #1
Follow the clues that "Smugleaf" gives you!


Considering the success of the Pokemon Anime scavenger hunt, as well as the Halloween Haunt's, it's B/W's turn (with an added twist)! All you need to do is follow the clues given to you by "Smugleaf" (yes there was a reason why this name was chosen).

Do note that this hunt is only in the Black and White section.

This hunt will be similar to Pokemon Anime's - each clue leads to another clue. The catch? It'll be a monthly scavenger hunt. The hunt will only last for two weeks from when the thread is posted. Once that time is up, we'll post the winners and where the clues were found. There will then be a two week break, which means after that, we'll post a new scavenger hunt based around another keyword or key concept of B/W (btw, one month it'll be my hunt, the next it'll be Kaori's and so on).

We're doing this so new B/W regulars can learn more about B/W's past, so that activity hopefully increases and it's just a bit of fun, too! Oh and you're allowed to discuss the hunt in this thread, your progress, etc.

★ Competition starts now - it'll last for two weeks from now
★ Don't post any clues you've found here, when you've found them all at the end, send a PM to Forever
★ Not every clue is able to be found with the "search" bar, you'll need to think a bit for a few clues! The clues are usually towards the start of the thread, with one exclusion~
★ Whoever has found all the clues will get an emblem - yeah this means multiple winners


First clue:
We have weekly polls that have been a success - they seem to be the highlight of B/W for Smugleaf!

Good luck!

how would we know if we have found the clue? Are they in title tags or something? :/

Ho-Oh November 11th, 2010 12:44 AM

Oh yes, I forgot to mention! XD;

Hover over "Smugleaf" in the post where the clue is at and you'll get the next clue~

(There are two cases where "Smugleaf" is mentioned in another location, but it should be easy to find within the thread).

Oh and the first clue doesn't have a title tag, just so you know :)

Logiedan November 11th, 2010 1:20 AM

I'm having trouble on this one clue.
I swear I've seen where it should be this morning but I can't find it anymore. o: <
(hard to post without not wanting to give anything away)

Lord_Storm November 11th, 2010 1:38 AM

I still cant find the first clue, and I dont know if its my browser or what

Dont worry, I worked it out

Logiedan November 11th, 2010 1:59 AM

Hey umm, do the clues have to be in order? Like when we PM them to you.
edit: nevermind i got it. x:

Lord_Storm November 11th, 2010 2:14 AM

Oh and whats a title tag?

Logiedan November 11th, 2010 2:17 AM

Basically, title tags are tags that let you hide text in text.
PHP Code:

[title=Do this to find the clue!]Hover over me![/title

Your outcome:

Hover over me!

Lord_Storm November 11th, 2010 2:31 AM

Ahh ok, I thought it was that, but I just wanted to make sure, and the second clue is really winding me up >:-(

mervyn797 November 11th, 2010 3:14 AM

Hmmm...
I have found 4 as of now. But things are getting a bit difficult now. >_>

Logiedan November 11th, 2010 4:31 AM

Baahh, i'm missing a clue. ;-;
I don't understand this clue either. I think i'll just stop looking and hopefully run into it during the time of the Scavenger hunt.

Captain Fabio November 11th, 2010 5:04 AM

Out of interest, is this a forum wide hunt or just the B/W board?

...how did you miss the big text... XD; Only in B/W. :3 Good luck everyone else who is currently trying to find the clues, though!

(No other forums besides Pokemon Anime are having a hunt, though).

AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Because the text was so big, I completely over looked it!

Derp.

A few questions that I didn't quite understand:
1) Is 'Smugleaf' the only word that contains a clue or are there others?
2) Are the posts that contain the word only posted by Forever?

Ho-Oh November 11th, 2010 6:41 AM

Smugleaf is the only word that contains the clue, yus. And nope, not just my posts :D

Ah, thanks for the clarification.
Now I can start hunting.

This is so much fun, by the way :D

EDIT: Oh and it can be in ANY post of ANY thread, as long as it's in the Black&White section?

champagnepapi November 11th, 2010 9:14 AM

The clue doesn't really give a hint to where the next one is, unless i'm missing something here. ;-;
If we're talking about the same clue that is.
